What WandaVision’s “Very Special Episode” Reveal Means for the Marvel Cinematic Universe
The following editorial is heavy on spoilers… Previously On WandaVision… Though Disney+’s WandaVision has already carved a niche for itself as a risk-taking series unlike anything the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) has attempted before, the spinoff series’ most recent installment delivered a reveal in the final seconds of this week’s episode that completely redefines the possibilities in the MCU. “On a Very Special Episode…” — WandaVision’s longest outing yet with nearly double the runtime of the four prior episodes — saw Darcy Lewis (Kat Jenning), Jimmy Woo (Randall Park), and the newly-returned Monica Rambeau (Teyonah Parris) try to find a way in to Westview, the town that Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen) has turned into her own fever-dream version of classic sitcoms. With Monica’s...

This TikTok User Mashed Up ‘WAP’ With ‘Bop to the Top’ From ‘High School Musical’ & It’s Actually Good
Bop bop bop, bop to the top, slip and slide and ride that… “WAP”? In the most unlikely mashup of all time, TikTok user @kraziibird seamlessly blended Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion‘s raunchy Billboard Hot 100 chart topper with High School Musical‘s “Bop to the Top,” performed by Ashley Tisdale and Lucas Grabeel’s characters Sharpay and Ryan. And while the two songs could not be more different, the resulting remix is actually really, really catchy. Megan’s iconic “gobble me, swallow me” verse flows perfectly over the bouncy “Bop to the Top” beat. You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

For our favorite new songs from emerging artists, check out our Spotify New Sounds playlist. While several stories over the past few weeks have reminded us that the entertainment world can still be very much a boys’ club in the worst ways imaginable, on the artistic side of matters, we’ve seen an undeniable shift in the recognition women are finally beginning to receive within the music industry, especially in the rock genre. Studies have shown that young women are not only picking up guitars at the highest rates ever, but they’re actually learning to play them in larger numbers than their male counterparts. No doubt it’s been partl...

Marilyn Manson Dropped by Longtime Manager Tony Ciulla: Report
Ciulla began managing Manson around 1996, the same year he released his breakthrough album, Antichrist Superstar. The two met while Ciulla was working at Trent Reznor’s Nothing Records in the early 1990s, when Manson’s band was signed by the label. Though Manson and Ciulla’s professional relationship has weathered a number of serious controversies over the past 25 years, the tide appears to have turned following Wood’s accusation that Manson “horrifically abused” her for years after the two met when Wood was 18 and Manson was 36. The pair announced their relationship in Jan. 2007 and were briefly engaged in 2010. “The name of my abuser is Brian Warner, also known to the world as Marilyn Manson,” Wood wrote on Instagram Monday. “He started grooming me when I was a teenager and horrifi...
MARILYN MANSON Dropped By Longtime Manager Following Abuse Allegations
Marilyn Manson‘s longtime manager has dropped the singer as a client, according to Rolling Stone.

Ciulla‘s decision to quit representing Manson was apparently prompted in part by “Westworld” actress Evan Rachel Wood naming Manson as the previously anonymous abuser she referenced while testifying before the California Senate in relation to the state’s Phoenix Act, which extends the statute of limitations on domestic violence from three years to five. On Monday, Wood claimed in a social media post that Manson “groomed” and “horrifically” abused her for years. After ...
